With A Straight Face Poem by Melissa Joy Chesky

With A Straight Face



All a girl wants
is to be told she's pretty
that she's wanted
that she's loved
especially with her imperfections.
That mistakes are okay
that it doesn't matter how she looks
that someone wants to be with her
that someone will be there for her
despite her sometimes manic babble.

Thanks for lying
with a straight face.
You were convincing
right to the very end.
